Corpses.

A general person doesn’t even dare to get close to a dead body, not to mention these ferocious and weird-looking monsters.

Zhao Yaya held back her fear. She took a look at the pack of beef jerky, beside Gu Fan’s feet and made up her mind to walk towards the stairway.

The girl’s emaciated body did not have much strength.

Zhao Yaya exerted all her strength to lift the corpse’s arms with her both arms, trembling and dragging them back into the room on another side of the apartment’s walkway.

“One.”

“Twenty more corpses are waiting for you to move. Hurry up.”

Gu Fan did not show any sympathy to her but instead urged her like a slave owner.

Zhao Yaya was being ruthlessly exploited, but for sake of that packet of beef jerky, she was forced to restrain her temper and bear with it.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked down at her clothes covered with the bloodstain, she held back her tears and continued to move the rotten corpse’s remnants away.

Zhao Yaya was so exhausted that both her hands’ muscle cramps.

Until she moved the last corpse into the nearby room, Zhao Yaya was completely exhausted and collapsed on the floor, lifelessly inhaling the air filled with the smell of rotten corpses.

Such a beauty.

Perhaps only a killing machine, like Gu Fan would treat her like hard labor.

“Yes.”

“It saves me a lot of my energy.”

Gu Fan walked to the side of the lifeless little girl and dropped that packet of beef jerky on the floor and said: “This is your reward.”

Zhao Yaya was emotionally affected and almost burst into tears.

This was her first time, she felt living in this world was such a difficult thing.

“Dark disaster.”

“At the end of the world, this had been the simplest life.”

Gu Fan sneered. He had been through the darkest time. Earning food through some physical labor, in the future, this kind of a good deal would be so demanding, where people tend to sacrifice for it.

“Zhao Yaya, right?”

“Do you want to have your second treat? I have another job for you.”

Gu Fan dropped another piece of food beside Zhao Yaya, at that moment the status of this little girl was so insignificant.

She forced a smile.

Zhao Yaya struggled with her both trembling hands to get herself up from the floor and cautiously picked up the food.

“Okay.”

“As long as there is food, I am willing to do anything.”

Although Zhao Yaya was completely drained, for the sake of survival, she didn’t care much, anymore.

Gu Fan couldn’t help nodding his head.

Many people still didn’t understand how dreadful the end of the world could be, only those who struggled hard for survival would be the final winner.

Gu Fan took out a large barrel of gasoline.

At the same time, he took out a packet of colorful balloons, which made Zhao Yaya very confused.

What was he trying to do??

“Go and pour the gasoline into the balloons.”

“Cannot be neither too little, nor too full, just like this.”

Gu Fan was explaining, as he opened the balloon and slightly tilt towards the gasoline tank.

Soon the balloon turned into a water ball, containing some liquid, like a child’s toy.

Zhao Yaya was astounded, and blurted out: “That’s all?”

This was way easier than just now, by just pouring gasoline into the balloons, and she will be given another packet of beef jerky.

In comparison with that, this is just a piece of cake.

Gu Fan answered coldly: “If you don’t feel like doing, then give me back that beef jerky.”

Zhao Yaya hastily shook her hand, and of course, she wouldn’t refuse such a small request.

He walked to the stairway with the “water ball”, filled with gasoline on his hand and tied it onto the handrail.

A balloon would be tied after every certain distance, and soon the handrail on the second floor was all hung with these colorful balloons.

If this is during normal times.

Normal people might think that there would be a celebration or welcoming a festive festival.

Zhao Yaya was full of doubts.

She handed the “water ball” filled with gasoline over to Gu Fan and curiously asked: “What are you trying to do with these??”

Gu Fan did not answer.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

In reality, this was another trap set up by Gu Fan.

“Paa!!”

There was a clear sound, the water balloon on Gu Fan’s hand accidentally fell onto the ground.

This was just a common mistake, but in Gu Fan’s eyes, it was a serious mistake and could even cause fatality.

At that moment, the tendon on Gu Fan’s hand slightly twitched, and his finger’s involuntarily loosened, and the balloon filled with gasoline fell onto the ground.

The muscle fibers’ tension had already reached its limits.

The tendons of his hands and legs slightly twitched sometimes, which was a sign of overexertion of strength, and indicated that his body is in a state of severe stress.

“This body is too weak after all.”

“By just killing a dozen of rotten corpses, and had already reached its limits.”

Gu Fan sighed to himself, the body of a person was just too weak after all.

Shoot a bow in every full moon.

He used his full strength in every wave of his dagger.

In every kill of those rotten monster corpses.

Gu Fan had been relying too much on his steel-like consciousness, where his body had been overly exhausted.

The desire to kill intertwined, although one could temporarily forget about the exhaustion of one’s body while in a battle, but does not mean that the injured muscles would disappear as it goes.

If Gu Fan had exceeded his body’s endurance …

The muscle fibers would be torn apart, the ligament couldn’t bear the pressure and breaks, or even much worse than these, which could cause the body to lost control at that instant.

So, Gu Fan decided to use military tactics!

Fire attack!!

Yes, Gu Fan is ready to use fire attack.

Here is near to Gu Fan’s safe house, where a fire attack would be very dangerous and without saying that it is very likely to attract endless of rotten corpses, and might even set himself on fire by burning down his lair.

But he had to take the risk, where this is the very best to kill as many rotten corpses as possible by using the least of his energy.

“I would try my best to get as many seeds of the abyss as possible before my body is fully falling apart to complete evolution.”

All these doings were to obtain enough seeds of the abyss to complete the mega evolution.

Gu Fan murmured to himself, where once he had the body that matches his power, then he could carry out intense hunting to the extreme, and no longer relying on these traps.

“All right.”

“There is none of your business anymore, go back to your house, and better not to be out for today.”

“If not …, you will be dead.”

After dealing with these, he looked at the colorful balloons hanging on the handrail and waved his hand to ask Zhao Yaya to leave.

Zhao Yaya took the two packets of the beef jerky with her eyes expressing an indescribable complex feeling.

“Thank you.”

With just one sentence to represent her thousands and thousands of words. She slightly bowed at Gu Fan and headed upstairs and leave.

Gu Fan didn’t care about it.

He began to move along the traps.

This time, he was planning for a big thing, and everything should be done carefully.

…

…

On the other side.

Zhao Yaya had returned to her front door.

After a moment of hesitation, she took out her key, opened the door lock, and walked into the room.

The house was covered with smoke.

A ruffian with a straight face was smoking, he impatiently rushed towards Zhao Yaya when seeing her returned.

“Damn it! I asked to find for something to eat, and what took you so long.”

The man was annoyed and yelled.

He walked towards her and took a closer look, then only he found out Zhao Yaya’s whole body was stained with blood.

“Are you kidding!”

“You made yourself so dirty.”

“Where is the food? Bring it to me now.”

The man had sharp-eyed and he saw the two packets of beef jerky Zhao Yaya was holding on to.

At that instant, he grabbed over the beef jerky, tore open the package and grabbed a handful, and fed them into his mouth.

Zhao Yaya felt even more aggrieved.

Tears were rolling in her eyes, but she didn’t dare to say a thing because the one standing in front of her had already caused her didn’t dare to fight back anymore.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
